My husband takes Abby out for a walk before and after work every day, unless there are severe storms. Missing a good portion of my meniscus in one knee after a bad fall several years ago, having a dog that will pull on the leash if she sees another dog makes it impossible for me to walk her as it's bone on bone with some movements. I have a professional dog walking service that provides a dear lady, a retired postal carrier, that walks her when he is on the road and we have a moderate sized fenced yard for playtime.
But tonight as they walked, they went up a street that has some new residents and a very tiny terrier mix came out behind Abbey from an open gate, ferociously barking and snarling behind her. Abby just slowly turned around and quietly look down at the dog.
The 8-pound dog looked up at the 82-pound dog and went deadly silent as it slowly and carefully did a 180-degree turn and started slinking back to the yard as a little boy came and snapped him up.
Abby just did a "Make my Day" grin and continued on.

ReplyDeleteNice job, Abby!
ReplyDeleteThat's the way to do it, Abby. Those small pups have a lot to say, don't they?'

Our patron saint Old Charisma used to do that. If there was another doggie acting a bit out of line, she'd give him the stink eye, and he'd back down.
ReplyDeleteHa! I can definitely picture that!
